• The actual delay time after receipt of arm event is not precisely the delay time
specified above. There is an inherent delay of typically 230 ns plus an amount of
sample period uncertainty. Refer to Appendix A - "Specifications" for additional
information on the inherent delay.

Example Setting the arming delay
ARM:DEL .001 Delay 1 millisecond after arm pulse before
arming the start trigger
[:STARt][:IMMediate]
ARM[:STARt][:IMMediate] will cause the start trigger to be armed immediately,
regardless of the selected ARM:STARt:SOURce. The selected
ARM:STARt:SOURce remains unchanged. The INITiate:IMMediate command
must have been sent before this command, otherwise error -212,"Arm ignored" will
occur.
There is no query form of this command.
Comments • Executable when initiated: Yes
• Coupled Command: No
• If the instrument is in the idle or wait-for-trigger states, the
ARM:STARt:IMMediate command will cause error -212,"Arm ignored" to be
generated.
• If ARM:STARt:COUNt is greater than 1, only a single measurement cycle is
affected by ARM:STARt:IMMediate; the count is decremented by one, and the
remaining ARM:STARt:COUNt cycles will be executed with the original arming
source active.
• When ARM:STARt:IMMediate is sent, any ARM:STARt:DELay is bypassed for
that arm only.
